Journal 34: Negative

     In my opinion, there are no actual bad influences except for bad habits such as drinking or smoking. It is because that everything is double sided, the bad thing could the good thing at the same time. People who braked your heart gave you a chance for learning how to heal it and people grow up each time they were hurt. I can think of a lot of people who have positive influences on me, that is everyone around me, every person who I value. People that I don’t really value don’t have positive influence on me because our life don’t intercept and how can the influence be good if there is no influence at all? However I think if people have negative influences on me, it will be a lot greater than the positive influences because the negative things are usually greater than the positive ones. Just like it is really easy to get fat but really hard to pull the weight down, no matter how hard you tried. Positive influences are like building blocks that leads to the path of a good person but the negative influences are like typhoon that blows over and take down the long-worked building if it wasn’t strong enough.
